Apparently, the only catch is that you can only buy two copies of any given show.

I've found this offer at my local Wal-Mart and Zellers here in Canada as well (only its $20, which is the CDN equivalent).
Guess FOX is trying a new strategy to get more ppl hooked on season sets. Works for me.
Hmm... crap, all my money's going to anime :/
Maybe if I get some extra cash...

I bought two copies of 24. I could only think of one person to give a copy to as a Christmas present, but darn it! I couldn't pass up a second copy! I gotta know someone I can give it to! :) Or maybe I can sell it on ebay and get me a copy of season 2.

That's an amazing price, especially for 24, Roswell, Buffy and Angel. That is 75% off right?
I just bought KOTH (dunno why) and Roswell for the free shipping deal.

Meh, I have Simpsons, Futurama, King of the Hill, and the other shows don't really interest me enough to buy. So......

However I just picked up Good Times season 2 for $6.99, and with 24 episodes of 1970's goodness, I'm set for tv shows for awhile.

I'm half tempted to pick up 24 & Roswell... tho I've not seen either. thoughts on them?
if i do go through with it, Simpsons is a given.

You misspelled Sports Night. :p
That being said I did utilize this to pick up a copy of 24 for my sister for Christmas.

I echo EinBebop; 24 is definetely one of my favorite shows. It goes beyond being a gimmick show and actually has a great storyline. So get it.
The only thing I want in this sale that I don't already have is Simpsons S1, which I'll probably get. On a related note I'm sad that the only Futurama set I've bought is Vol. 1. =(

Movieguy, the KOTH season 1 set is done really well. You'll like it even if you hate KOTH. "So, you thought you were watching this DVD? Wrong, pal...it's watching YOU!!"
Yeah, the only thing on there I don't have that I will have someday is Simpsons Season 1. That's iffy....

Wrong, pal...it's watching YOU!!"Yeah, I've seen a few episodes this year and wasn't too crazy about it. Maybe if I watch from the beginning I'll understand it better.
You should pick up Simpsons btw. Pretty nice set. :)

Get 24 season 1 and watch it the whole way through in as little time as you can.Amen to that. I watched two episodes a day and then stayed up through the night and watched the last 8 straight. Not once did I even think about how tired I was.

Nothing worth buying, except for the simpsons, which I aint gonna buy. How about the new Cedric the Entertainer Presents DVD, but that JUST came out.

24 is a more-or-less definite.
Buffy or Angel are my maybes...

Amen to that. I watched two episodes a day and then stayed up through the night and watched the last 8 straight. Not once did I even think about how tired I was.I watched the entire season in like two or three days. It felt like I was going through the day with Jack, which is a feeling that is impossible to duplicate now that I watch it weekly as it airs. But maybe the new schedule will help ease my pain (no breaks in the weeks, 2-hour premiere, 2-hour special midseason event, 2-hour finale).
Oh, and Colin. Don't watch the upcoming season 4 (this January on Fox) until you've seen the first three seasons in order. You'll ruin some masterful storylines for yourself.

I'm picking up Futurama; I've been waiting for the perfect time to start collecting that series.
You misspelled Sports Night. :pYeah, it's spelled aye-are-are-ess-tee-eee-dee dee-eee-vee-eee-el-oh-pee-mm-eee-en-tee.

I don't think this coming season will spoil too much. What with there not being any co-stars, we may be starting more or less fresh.

Nina Myers is supposedly going to show up at some point

How about the new Cedric the Entertainer Presents DVD, but that JUST came out. 24 is consistently one of the best shows on television, and the first season of Roswell was pretty good. Buffy and Angel are fan-favorites (although I have not seen either). There is definitely something "worth buying", especially at $14.99.

Well, I take that back. The only DVDs on that list I consider "worth buying" are The Simpsons, Futurama, or maybe KOTH, but Ihate that shows. the rest, I also hate those shows.

Appears that the sale is now over... as I just went to amazon now to check it out and everything was jacked up to the marked down prices that are not $15... ah well, guess I didn't want those DVDs anyway =X
...maybe next time.
